Re: Correct me if I'm wrong ............
I had never ran spring clamps on our Camaro (don't ask me why!) until this past fall, when I was at a bracket race. I had the clamps and thought I would try them...they dropped an easy tenth off my 60 foot times, and made the car VERY consistent. You want the front leafs as still as possible, and many people even clamp an extra "leaf" or piece of steel to the top of the leaf to stiffen it. It is legal to adjust the pinion angle, but I have yet to do it. Maybe Pete can shed some light on how much it helps.
That spring clamp pictured looks EXACTLY like the clamps I picked up this summer at the local parts store...Mr. Gasket, I think?
Marlin, I won't except "no" for an answer, so I will see you in Martin, Norwalk, and/or Stanton with your Deuce!
